Mamoswine, Excadrill, Ferrothorn, Garchomp, Hippowdon, Forretress, all who are better in bulk or can do better damage(mostly on their typing)

The only niche they have is that Lycanroc-Midday has accelerock, a priority move, and Lycanroc-Midnight has an interesting ability in No Guard.

All in all, Lycanroc is not terrible, but you'll probably see Lycanroc-Midday being played as just an all-out attacker instead, whereas Lycanroc-Midnight is just terrible. Lycaroc has a much higher speed than other common setters, so it isnt scared away by taunters like Froslass, so you should also consider that ( Lycanroc can OHKO Froslass w/ Stone Edge before she can Taunt it.
